Will There Be More Gilmore Girls? Creator Amy Sherman-Palladino Weighs In

Whether you loved, hated, or were unsure how to feel about the ending of Netflix's four-part revival of the beloved Gilmore Girls series, chances are you were left wanting more. After all, we're nearly a decade out from when the show originally ended its seven-season run, and its fandom is still going strong. Because as wonderful as it was to be transported back to Stars Hollow via the four mini-movies—and as happy as I am to have gotten some closure—the mini-series also left viewers with a whole slew of new questions.

Warning: Major Gilmore Girls spoilers ahead!

First and foremost, those final four words! Who is the father? And what does that major revelation mean for our favorite mother-daughter duo, anyway?

Is Rory really going to give up her dream of being a journalist? Will she finish her book (and will Lorelai like it)? And is Jess honestly still pining for Rory all these years later? (P.S. Am I the only one who thought it was weird when we saw Jess watching Rory through the window considering they'd only shared a few minutes of screen time leading up to that?)

Unfortunately for us, it looks like we'll just have to wait and see—because that's exactly what the show's creator Amy Sherman-Palladino is doing.

"We really had a very specific journey in our minds, and we fulfilled the journey," Sherman-Palladino told The Hollywood Reporter. "So to us, this is the piece that we wanted to do. And the whole thought about, is there more, is there more, is there more—this has to go out into the universe now. We've got to put this to bed. And then whatever happens, happens."

So there you have it...or, as much as that held for us, anyway. Obviously whether the series' stars Lauren Graham, Alexis Bledel, and Kelly Bishop—as well as all the other actors who play key characters—are available and willing to film more episodes is an important factor in this. Scott Patterson, who plays Luke, certainly seems open to it. Earlier this year, he told THR that "it [would] be nice to do it every year. Maybe every two years, do a three-month thing, do four more chapters. It was easy to do. It was fun. It was really rewarding, and people got a sense that if this was going to be the last thing that we now have some closure."

The fact that Sherman-Palladino and her husband, Daniel Palladino, are already working on their next show, an Amazon pilot called The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, about a housewife who becomes a stand-up comic, complicates matters. But if Netflix is happy with the ratings, maybe (just maybe!) they can persuade her.
